Buddae Jiggae is the best awful food in the world

Budae Jiggae, is something which literally means troop soup. It dates to the Korean war, where soldiers would take their food tins and put them together. I’ve now been to the nationwide chain of restaurants known as Nolboo Budae Jiggae and smoked meat fish several times.

The food is kind of disgusting to hear it described. It’s a bunch of spam and hot dogs and spices, kimchi. All thrown together and put in a pot.

However it’s delicious. It’s meaty and spicy. I get it with a portion of ramen noodles in it and it’s excellent.

Nolboo Buddae Jiggae is everywhere, I’ve probably seen 50 locations since I’ve been in Korea.
